‘She must be on her period, Ā“ said a man in a suit to his colleague laughing at their boss who just burst in anger about some in their eyes unimportant thing.
Ā“Other woman are just fine and functioning why canĀ“t you?Ā“
Ā“I donĀ“t want to hear about it itĀ“s disgusting.Ā“
Ā“You canĀ“t use your cycle as an excuse for being meanĀ“
IĀ am sorry for maybe uncomfortable topic for some but same time can be aĀ little eye opening and if you are aĀ man you can maybe understand aĀ woman aĀ little bit more.
Have you ever heard any of the statements above? Personaly or throug others I did.
Just few days ago I had very strange experience. Pain would be very common companion every month but what I experienced now was way far more extreme than ever before. I guess the connection to my own woman site and body is reaching its culminating point so with understanding can sometimes come pain as well. I almost called the ambulance when I was just about to faint while making breakfast being unable to stand up, covered in hot sweat, pinpointed to the bed crawling like a hurt animal. My whole body vibrated and only open my eyes was too much, too painful, too overwhelming. Whole world around me was spiralling and I wasnĀ“t sure if it ever ends.
All IĀ could do is accept that my body is going through something difficult yet important. Once IĀ have embraced my state which was aĀ little scary the sensation started easing itself.
Woman cycle is aĀ truly strange but in aĀ way a magical thing as well. IĀ am not an exception in better understanding my own woman site as older IĀ get.
There used to be times when IĀ wished to be rather aĀ man and cycle was one of the reasons.
I have been always very sensitive to it skipped classes at school because of it felt embarrassed when I was one of the first one in my class to experience it.
Such a natural thing which somehow we grow up to hide, feel embarrassed about, find hard to talk about, push ourselves to feel and perform as nothing would be happening every month to our body. We have learnt to take pills to control and change natural patterns as we would think it is our right playing gods.
I donĀ“t blame you there is a huge pressure to be fully functioning as if we wouldnĀ“t be humans.
How could a world run predominantly by mind understand that every woman experiences her cycle differently, some are more sensitive to it than others, that it is unhuman effort to try control moods in this time. How could a mind who doesnĀ“t understand emotions embrace that it is not a sign of weakness but quiet opposite. It is easier to deny the huge impact it has on the body, mind, emotions, performance, mood every single month because it is just not convenient being sensitive and human. It takes time, effort and open mind to understand what is really happening. Unfortunatelly that doesnĀ“t earn any money or perform well on annual progress presentations.
Cycle taught me aĀ lot about myself. Every month IĀ can see aĀ pattern appearing. Just before Ā“the cleaning processĀ“ my moods change sometimes rapidly. There is nothing IĀ can do about it as IĀ believe you out there either. All we can do is embrace the fact that we are emotional, nervous even mean sometimes and giving people around us aĀ little hard time.
IĀ hear you it is not easy to deal with us but trust me it is not easy to be us in the time either.
Often I would feel to be a different person. My moods lower down, for about a week before,I would prefer quiet environment, no people and withdraw. It is not always possible though in such sped up lives we live sometimes in structure where society is build the way where are no breaks or acknowledgments of womanās monthly cycle.
I am starting to understand better what could of been society before patriarchy when woman was a centre of society connected to very raw source of our humanness ā emotions, nature cycles, body, all we are made of and from.
We donĀ“t live in that world anymore because from body and our heart we moved into our heads. We disconnected from our bodies so much, that sometimes we canĀ“t even spot our own emotions, we became unaware how much they drive our behaviour and thought patterns. In this sense woman are very lucky, because cycle is bringing us back, is teaching us to connect with ourselves to be aware of the pattern to listen what our body needs and is telling us.
It is such aĀ creative process as well. According to my cycle IĀ see the patter of creativity emerging. All the senses heighten just before sometimes in such an overwhelming way that bearing noise is difficult, emotions of other people, my own emotions which reach extreme points.
I am not able to be creative in this time.
Everything feels pointless what the body needs here is quiet going inside rather to the outside world, reflect because something is ending and needs to be processed and let go for another new beginning. Ā Just after everything calms down I feel renewed as the body is renewed once again. My creativity emerges, my mood is cheerer, ideas emerge, I have much more energy.
New cycle has started and the process of born and death in symbolic way is starting once again.
As a little child full of energy I enter first days, so excited about everything every single experience and as I grow Ā“olderĀ“ throughout the process I calm down and go into slower retrospective state as the cycle is reaching its end just before the period comes the same way as one is reaching end of their life. Month passed and death and new beginning will be experienced once again.
Understanding this process helped me to connect natural processes in life. Everything is changing all the time, nothing stays still or forever, what is born needs to die one day, itās a natural process we forgot in technological by mind run world.
I feel connected to my woman site today as never before. Through all the pain, misunderstanding, blame, judgment of such natural process we experience every month I finally came to understand how powerful and necessary this all is.
All we need is a support, acceptance and respect that we bear this to show you what one part of human nature is truly about š
